AOD Blog #3 - Mentoring

My family (my parents and my younger sister) gets involved in mentoring with each other. We teach and guide together from school work to real world life. In Key Club, I tutored elementary kids with their school work. But before I tutored the students, I helped my younger sister with her projects and math (and I still help now). I am more comfortable tutoring math because I think I'm strong in mathematics than other subjects. Though there are no tutoring offered from their school, I'm looking forward to tutor anyone. Though sometimes I myself gets stuck in homework especially language arts homework. My parents usually help me revise, edit, and they gave helpful advices into creating a piece of writing. Other than education mentoring, my parents teaches and guides me and my sister to live an independent life in the real world. My parents taught us basic things we need to know how we should live in our homes independently. For example, they taught us how to clean up the house. Also, my parents taught us how to cook Filipino food, which we hope to preserve Filipino culture. They hold conversations with me and my sister about their mistakes and how to resolve and avoid them. For instance, they taught us the steps to buy and sell houses. My parents taught us these tips because they don't want to see us repeat their mistakes.
